Bryan Adams - Room Service Tour 2005

Multi-Grammy Award winner Bryan Adams may have twelve platinum hits, more than 55 million albums sales and numerous number one hits in more than thirty countries worldwide but he, like any artist who enjoys career longevity, knows that his fans always want more.

And Bryan, as always, delivers.

With a new album Room Service about to hit stores on September 20 (through Universal), Bryan Adams is doing what he does best – touring. And The Frontier Touring Company and Roundhouse Entertainment are delighted to confirm that he has Australia right on the top of his list.

But this isn't just any ordinary tour. In a first for Australian fans, Bryan has agreed to not only visit Australia's leading entertainment centres, but will also include a number of winery shows on his extensive touring schedule.

It's a tour that both old and new fans will adore – with reviews from overseas indicating that Bryan just keeps getting better and better.

Sentinel UK wrote; "we were eating out of his hand f rom the word go... with feel–good rock anthems and acoustic versions of well-loved songs – a good mix of older and newer tracks – Bryan really belted out the lyrics and looked as if he was enjoying himself as much as the word-perfect crowd."

And the Ottawa Sun wrote;"Adams was so in command of the stage and the crowd, so ready to rip on the guitar, so strong and raspy in his voice decades after he broke out, it was impossible not to be sucked in by the unique combination of buoyancy and heavy riffs once he and his four piece band started playing."

Tickets for the tour are scheduled to go on sale on Monday 20 September – the same day as the commercial release of Bryan's new album. So in an Australian first, The Frontier Touring Company, Roundhouse Entertainment and Universal Music Australia have put their heads together and created the perfect package for Bryan fans purchasing Gold/Premium tickets. Not only will Gold/Premium ticket purchasers receive premium seating at the concerts, but also a copy of the brand new album Room Service (please note this offer is not available for the Perth concert).

With the first single Open Road already proving popular with radio, industry insiders are predicting that Bryan is about to add another smash hit to his already extensive collection of chart toppers.

It's only this year that a Bryan Adams' song topped the charts in Australia – Shannon Noll's vers ion of the hit single Drive. So it seems fitting that Bryan has extended an invitation to Shannon to join him on the road for his indoor shows.

A firm favourite of the first series of Australian Idol, Noll captured the hearts of Australians everywhere with his emotive and gutsy vocal skills.

Since finishing in second place in Australian Idol, Noll has proven himself to be anything but a runner-up with his album That's What I'm Talking About debuting at the top of the charts.

Shannon will join Bryan's concerts in Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane, Wollongong and Melbourne.

In Perth – in the biggest double bill of the year – Bryan will join fellow superstar Rod Stewart. Performing at Perth's Subiaco Oval, this is predicted to be the must have ticket for any self-respecting West Australian. Incidentally it won't be the first time the pair has worked together – in 1994 Rod, Bryan and Sting topped the charts across the world with the single All For Love.

For Bryan's "a day on the green" winery shows, audiences will be treated to the talents of songstress Vanessa Amorosi. Chart-topper Amorosi's powerful voice will be the perfect foil for a day of brilliant music, food – and of course wine!

So if you're looking for big tour news, and huge value for money concert bills, look no further.
